Updated 6 July 2024

This Appendix contains the specific completion rules instructions for the 1-series National Additional Procedure Codes for Data Element (DE) 1/11 for Exports.

Use the DE 1/10 – 1/11 correlation matrix, Additional Procedure Code index list and their respective completion notes to help you identify the correct code to use and for additional guidance on how to complete the declaration.

This Appendix includes Additional Procedure Codes:

1CD: Controlled Drugs using Simplified Procedures
1CG: Controlled Goods using Simplified Procedures
1DP: Goods exported or dispatched under diplomatic privilege (official use)
1FT: Exportation of goods via a Fixed Transport Installation
1MB: Exporting commercial goods in your baggage or small vehicle (Merchandise in Baggage / MIB)

Notes:

The completion notes in this Appendix are a supplement to the CDS Declaration Completion Instructions for Exports.

These completion notes are a supplement to the DE 1/10 Procedure Code Notes and therefore any instructions relating to the requested or previous procedure included against the relevant DE 1/10 Procedure Code (see Appendix 1: DE 1/10: Requested and Previous Procedure Codes) must also be followed.

The DE 1/10 completion notes are not repeated against or superseded by the DE 1/11 completion notes.

This Appendix only contains any additional completion notes for each 3-digit Additional Procedure Code and does not constitute full guidance on how the declaration should be completed.

Where a single goods item requires the use of both Union and National Additional Procedure Codes, Union Codes (from Appendix 2A: DE 1/11: Additional Procedure Codes: Union Codes Index List) should be declared first (see CDS Declaration Completion Instructions for Exports, DE 1/11 for more details).

Only one 4-digit Procedure Code can be declared against each goods item in DE 1/10, however, this may be tailored to the specific circumstances for the goods treatment by the use of multiple Additional Procedure Codes in DE 1/11.
